English to afrikaans meaning of

ambiguity

Die woordeboekdefinisie van die woord "dubbelsinnigheid" is die kwaliteit om oop te wees vir meer as een interpretasie of om 'n dubbele betekenis te hê. Dit verwys na 'n situasie waar die betekenis van 'n woord, frase of sin onseker is en op verskillende maniere geïnterpreteer kan word. Dubbelsinnigheid kan ontstaan uit 'n verskeidenheid bronne, soos onduidelike taal, veelvuldige moontlike betekenisse of 'n gebrek aan konteks. Dit kan opsetlik of onopsetlik wees en kan verwarring of wankommunikasie in geskrewe of gesproke taal skep.
